![]() Chief Washakie's grave on the west side of Fort Washakie. The entry from my book for July 3, 1868: "The Fort Bridger Treaty (15 Stat. 673) created the Wind River Reservation for the Shoshone and Arapaho Tribes. It covered 2,828 square miles of Wyoming and was occupied by the Northern Arapaho and Eastern Shoshone." Click here to go to the Eastern Shoshone Tribe website |
![]() Chief Washakie, 1870. Credit to wyomingtalesandtrails.com This is the headquarters for the Shoshone (also spelled Shoshoni, and a few other ways) who live on this reservation. The tribal headquarters was closed, and I could not find the library. The "learning center" was open, so I went in. I asked them where the local library was (I wanted to give them a copy of my book). The young woman there told me to turn right at the stop sign and go south until I saw the sign. I had just gone that way while I was looking for the tribal headquarters and I did not see a sign. I asked her if she meant the highway. She said yes. I asked her how far down the road the library was. She said about 30 miles. In reality, the library was in the town of Lander. Before I left town, I visited the grave of Chief Washakie. |
